Known for making quality gaming peripherals, GameSir has launched a pretty cool wireless controller, the Cyclone 2, to take advantage of advanced features designed for players on the Switch, PC, Android, iOS, and Steam. With innovative technology and solid build quality, this controller promises precision, speed, and personalisation for gamers using different platforms.
Cyclone 2 key features
Mag-Res TMR sticks for smooth gameplay
The Cyclone 2 introduces GameSir’s Mag-Res TMR sticks, which mix the precision of traditional analogue sticks with the durability of Hall Effect sensors. This guarantees better accuracy and prolongs the stick’s life, making it a reliable choice for extended gaming sessions.
The controller is designed with quick-reaction players in mind, including Hall Effect analogue triggers for precision control. It has a Hair Trigger Mode for ultra-fast input—ideal for FPS and action titles.
Versatile connectivity options
Whether you like wireless freedom or the reliability of wired connections, the Cyclone 2 is there for you. Equipped with tri-mode connectivity, including Bluetooth, wired, and 2.4 GHz wireless, this enables gamers to experience minimal input lag and consistent performance.
Enhanced controls for all gaming genres
The Cyclone 2 includes:
- Micro Switch face buttons featuring tactile bump and up to 5 million lifetimes
- A responsive D-pad for precision in directional input
- Back buttons and a turbo function for more customisation
Equipped with a 6-axis gyroscope, it provides immersive control of motion. This controller, therefore, is a fantastic choice for titles that support gyroscopic input—very true on Nintendo Switch.
Customisable design and features
The Cyclone 2 has RGB strips and a Home indicator included: this controller lets gamers take it to the max. Players can work out settings, using the GameSir Connect app, reflecting their personal style and making sessions truly unique every time.
What makes it stand out
The Cyclone 2 is not just a precision controller; it is also an immersion-enhanced device. With asymmetric vibration motors, it’s capable of producing haptic feedback that perfectly synchronises with whatever happens in the game—from the recoil of weapons to the rumble of a car engine, the vibrations bring every moment to life.
Meanwhile, the controller also prioritises long-lasting play, thanks to the 860mAh battery that supports extended gaming sessions.
Availability and pricing
The Cyclone 2 is now available for purchase:
- Standalone model: $49.99/£49.99
- Bundle with charging dock: $55.99/£55.99
It’s available in two colours—Shadow Black and Phantom White—and can be purchased from Amazon in both the US and UK or directly from GameSir’s website.
Community buzz
Early feedback highlights the Cyclone 2 as a cheap but feature-heavy option. With seamless multi-platform compatibility, customisation options, and a durable build, it’s shaping up to be one of the best wireless controllers on the market.
The GameSir Cyclone 2 might just be the perfect pick for gamers wanting a versatile, reliable controller that won’t break the bank.
